This invention relates to a novel stabilized borax based fire retardant system. More particularly, this invention pertains to a borax containing fire retardant system which is stabilized and resists leaching and oxidation when combined as a coating or an impregnation with a suitable substrate such as wood, plastic or the like. A stabilized borate suspension useful for providing fire retardancy to a substrate comprising: (a) a liquid polyacrylate suspension; (b) a liquid polytetrafluoroethylene suspension; (c) a borate powder; (d) a liquid vinyl acetate co-polymer suspension; and (e) sufficient water to incorporate components (a), (b), (c) and (d) to form an emulsion.
